Do You Need More of this Vitamin for Vitality?

In addition to bone health, vitamin D may be vital to muscle function and mobility

Decades of research have focused on the importance of vitamin D for maintaining healthy bones, especially as we age. The relationship between vitamin D and bone health was cited as the most important consideration when the Institute of Medicine expert panel updated the vitamin D recommendations in 2010 as well. But vitamin D may be vital for healthy aging for another reason: Without enough of it, muscle function and mobility can be impaired, which is a leading cause of falls in seniors, and can lead to broken bones and other injuries.

More D for more muscle

To examine the connection between vitamin D, muscle strength, and mobility, researchers studied 302 women between ages 70 and 90 with low blood vitamin D levels. The women were divided into two groups, receiving either 1,000 IU of vitamin D per day or a placebo. Lower body muscle strength was measured at the beginning and end of the study. Mobility was assessed with the timed up-and-go test, which measures how long it takes a person to get up from a chair, walk a short distance, and return to the chair.

After a year of supplementing with vitamin D, compared with the placebo group, women with the weakest leg muscle strength and poorest mobility at the beginning of the study had significantly greater forward and backward (extensor) strength, side-to-side (abductor) strength, and faster timed up-and-go tests. Only the group who took supplements showed significant increases in blood vitamin D levels.

Getting the right dose of D

Keep the following tips in mind about vitamin D and how to help yourself age well:

Ask your doctor or dietitian for a recommendation on what amount is right for you.

Stay active as you age. It's easy to do less over time, and the best way to remain active is to never stop being active in the first place.

If you have an injury or simply struggle to complete activities of everyday life, ask your doctor for a referral to a physical therapist or exercise physiologist. A targeted program to strengthen the body can go a long way toward helping us stay independent and healthy as we age.

Several reviews said to give it at least a month. I did. Don't think this is the one for me. Very little benefit re. virility, which is what I am looking for. So, today, I ordered the New Vigor and will give it a try.

I've been using this product in combination with Pycnogenol (100MG) daily for close to 2 years now. After reading some studies online about how Pycnogenol is a catalyst for the effects of Arginmax (L-Arginine specifically) I decided to commit to trying it. The box says to take 3 in the beginning of the day and 3 near the end of the day, but I take all 6 at once (just to get it out the way). L-Arginine takes about a month to build up in your system, and for your body to adjust to it (no real side effects, maybe indigestion). But when it does, you definitely notice the effects. Every facet of performance and endurance is enhanced, especially sexually. It even helps stamina at the gym. I highly recommend giving this a shot. Remember, don't look for immediate results. KEEP TAKING IT! After about 3 weeks, you'll notice a significant difference.

I found this product after my meds were affecting my sexual performance (im 43 years old), i told my dr about taking this product and he checked it out and says it works the same way the the "blue" pill. But you get more tablets and can buy more in a month than the prescription. very happy i can restore my performance with this great product. Seems pricey but how much do you value your sexual performance

I have used this product for about two months and have been fairly pleased. I have noticed a significant increase in energy, which has been helpful when I take it before working out. As for bedroom department, I have seen somewhat of an increase in desire. If you're really looking for something to get it up and keep it up, though, you might want to add another product. Overall, I'm pleased with this, though.

Im about half way through my bottle. I will say this. I do feel a bit of difference in the bed room more energy and strength but not as much as i hoped. How ever these pills serve as a great pre work out. Since it opens up your blood vessels and you gain better blood flow i am able to pump more weight run longger and have a better work out. I will post another review when im done with the bottle. I feel like it works, It just seems it takes at least half the bottle before you see any results in the bedroom.
